Institutional FX benchmarks set as TRM anchors spot market liquidity

The updated representative market exchange rate (TRM) for the US Dollar vs Colombian Peso was set at 3,297.07 pesos per dollar on November 12, 2026, according to Elcomercio. Publication of the official TRM informs regulatory benchmarks and provides institutional participants a formal anchor for spot FX pricing. This helps guide both wholesale and retail market activity in line with prevailing liquidity conditions.

Short-term momentum contrasts with longer-term trend amid mixed signals

On the technical front, USD/COP is trading above the MA-20 and MA-50 on the hourly chart, but remains below the MA-200, highlighting a discrepancy between short-term momentum and the longer-term trend. Immediate support sits at the daily Ichimoku Kijun level of COL$3,292. MACD maintains a Buy bias, though the ADX is signaling Sell, reflecting conflicting signals and a market in transition. Both RSI and Stoch RSI are neutral, with CCI remaining in the overbought zone—an early warning for a possible correction, though not a confirmed reversal. Bull/Bear Power remains positive, indicating buyers retain intraday control, while the Awesome Oscillator continues to support the current upward movement.

High probability of sideways trade as volatility underpins range

Over the next two to three sessions, USD/COP is likely to fluctuate within the COL$3,310 to COL$3,353 band, reflecting typical volatility for the pair. The probability of an upward move is very high, while a significant decline appears unlikely. Sideways consolidation is the most likely near-term scenario unless a breach of either COL$3,353 on the upside or COL$3,310 on the downside occurs, which would prompt a directional breakout.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that USD/COP shows modest upward momentum above short- and medium-term moving averages, but remains technically constrained beneath its longer-term trend. He sees mixed technical signals, with MACD Buy bias and positive Bull/Bear Power, but ADX signaling Sell and several oscillators neutral or overbought. The official TRM update offers institutional anchoring, likely supporting price stability within the current range. "I remain cautious here — unless COL$3,353 breaks, sideways action stays my base case for now."

Earlier, analysts noted that USD/COP was exhibiting short-term strength within a broadly bearish trend, with overbought conditions hinting at the potential for near-term correction. The current analysis introduces a phase of technical indecision, highlighting the importance of watching for a breakout from the COL$3,310 to COL$3,353 range to determine the next directional move.
